Daughter of Promise

Love me please, the little girl cries
Alone at night when day is done
Her quiet plea is whispered
Now that Daddy's gone...

Away now...and won't take care of me
Just another broken promise
But SomeOne's watchin, see
Surrounding...

I will be strong, the young girl fights
Driven to stay alive inside
Her unspoken vow of no more tears
Is steeled into a lie...

Alone now...can't hurt this heart of mine
With another broken promise
But SomeOne's holding time
Protecting...

She is hungry, her soul cries out
For something true and real
The deep longing for acceptance
A wounded heart begins to heal...

Awake now...ever sing for joy and hope
For this promise to believe in
Now Jesus is embracing, close
Forgiving...

She is loved and everything is brighter
For SomeOne knows her name
Her freedom dance of passion
Releases her from shame

Alive now...true and faithful One
She's a daughter of His promise
His knowing love has come
Belonging...
